Re: Chinese MMO Ban Males from Playing Female Characters Wow that would piss me the **** off. What does it even matter to them, honestly. Is their MMO just a bigass cyber sex chatroom? If not, then how's it any of their business?
I mean, technically they can do anything they want, but that's a stupid ass move on their part. If I played, it'd cross my mind to quit it just because of their stupid bull****.
Personally, I think female characters often look a lot cooler than male characters, so I'll have one of each. On WoW for instance, I was a female orc hunter. A hunter in WoW is pretty much a ranger. And when I think of rangers, I think of small, slick, swift looking characters. Not a GIANT freaking male orc who has a ten foot wide shoulder span. Not a big muscle bound guy shooting this tiny little bow. So I chose the female character model, who was probably literally half the size in shoulderwidth, and looked much more suiting of a ranger. It's a tiny detail in the game, sure, but playing a GAME, ESPECIALLY like an MMO is about customization and playing a character that you think is cool. Otherwise what's really the point?
Anyway that's totally lame of them. |
